A 92-acre residential development site at Boyden Street in Waterbury, CT is offered for sale at $595,000 by Commercial Connection. The land comprises two parcels at the intersection of Boyden Street and Sheffield Street in Waterbury’s North End / Bucks Hill district.
Site features and disclosures: the property is currently zoned residential with potential for a zone change to industrial use subject to Waterbury Land Use approval. The Waterbury Branch Line rail corridor runs along the southern boundary of the property, and high-tension power transmission lines cross the parcel. Both features warrant due diligence on a buyer’s layout and use plans, but also offer real infrastructure advantages for industrial reuse or for a residential plan that respects the easements with greenway buffering.
Location: Boyden Street sits in Waterbury’s North End / Bucks Hill area, ZIP 06704. Access to Route 8 and I-84 via North Main Street (Rt 73) and the Wolcott Rd corridor; Wolcott town line and surrounding residential neighborhoods to the east; Waterbury industrial corridor along the rail line to the south.
Market: Waterbury (06704) North End / Bucks Hill, citywide population ~114,000. Working-class to middle-income housing demand stable, with NYC and Hartford commuter access via Rt 8 and I-84. CT housing supply remains tight statewide, supporting absorption for new single-family or cluster-residential product.
Use fit: residential subdivision with room for phased development (single-family, cluster, or planned residential); alternatively, light industrial reuse if the zone change is approved given the rail-line adjacency.
